2002

This project was like a journal about 366 days, from January 1st to December 31st. The events were taken from the history of the 20th century, and I wrote as a first-person narrator, as if from my diary. The selection of facts did not follow a historical hierarchy, but was very personal and varied, covering culture, sports, politics, and everyday news.  The first-person narrator runs almost out of breath - as perpetrator and as victim - through the history of a century, of my century.

I made this project first as an audio installation, then as a book, and later as a large print. I wrote the first text in German, and over time it was translated into several languages: Italian, English, French, and Russian.

The years of the events can be found in the chronology at the end of the book, or on the side of the work
